This effortless gesture can put a smile on someone’s face with just a simple message on a rock. Kindness Rocks Project motto is “One Message at just the right moment can change someone’s entire day, outlook, life”.  Megan Murphy, the founder of the Kindness Rocks Project started leaving messages and inspirational words on rocks and leaving on the beaches of Cape Cod to find and to make a difference in their life.

When I found my first painted rock, it sparked excitement and joy of wanting to share that feeling with people who needed a little inspiration in their life. Try putting a little sparkle in someone’s smile, a little skip in their step and a warmth in their heart by gifting them with a heartfelt inspiring message on a painted rock today.

I have updated the original blog post of my Top 40 Inspirational Kindness Rocks Project Ideas with more painting quotes and inspiring words. Enjoy!
